Digital BW, The Print

Good info, thanks, but that is a spongeless cart.   We are talking about the
2200 carts, which have a sponge.

MIS disagrees:

From their refill instruction on the spongeless clear carts, step #4:
"Re-install the rubber plug. Make sure it fits tight. An air leak
here will let ink drain into your printer. If you think the plug is
damaged, use a new one. "

Link to page where you can also see the inner design of the cart:
